The buzz of CRT monitors
The air is thick with the scent of ozone and the buzz of CRT monitors. A familiar joystick hums under your fingertips, and the pixelated world flickers to life. Age of Joy isn’t just about recreating the arcade experience, it’s about capturing the magic of those golden age classics.
Recently, the community has been buzzing about some truly iconic retro titles. The King of Fighters ’98: Ultimate Match HERO, a legendary fighting game, has been making waves. It’s a reminder of the incredible depth and competitive spirit that defined the arcade scene.
Of course, no retro gaming experience is complete without the classics. Jungle Hunt, a timeless platformer with its iconic Tarzan-esque hero, has been reborn in Age of Joy with stunning HD textures and intuitive 3D controls. And for those who crave a bit of nostalgia, the Japanese version, Jungle King, offers a unique twist on the beloved formula.
The community is passionate about preserving these gaming gems, and their enthusiasm is contagious. With each new cabinet download and shared experience, Age of Joy is becoming a vibrant hub for retro gaming enthusiasts.
So grab your joystick, load up your favorite classic, and step back in time. The arcade awaits!

Love AOJ, but Rebel Assault wasn't an arcade game, nor played on spherical screens. Do you mean Battle Pod? Don't think that's emulated in MAME though, let alone AOJ.
You are right! Thanks for the heads-up.
Great post!
